Well, a spinal column more suited for a quadraped wasn’t a nice gift. And the eye seems to have been built ass-backward. And what’s up with the appendix? ---

I agree. I’ve tried Guaraanteed Overnight Delivery and they just don’t stand up to InterState. Even UPS gives them a run for their money, and Old Dominion simply outclasses them all. I can’t think why anyone would continue to believe in Guaranteed Overnight Delivery. ---

God, your son looks like a goddamned (_snerk_) hippie. Tell him to get a haircut and a real job, and stop fooling around with those silly parlor tricks he is fond of. ---

Agh. I shouldn’t be posting, but I had a flash of clarity with regard to these\* “God is teh bad!”\* posts. **crinz83** , smarter than you have tried. And they’ve done well. Leave it to them. Please. I’d hate to think that the theocracy my people envision came about because our most stringent oppponents were people like YOU. I mean, that’d hardly be sporting. And I’d like to think my New Catholic World Order would have encountered at least SOME resistance. ---
